Chassis 6075
Customer: Jack Leconte
Delivery: 8. June 1993
Color: Grand-Prix White
This is one of the famous Larbre cars. The livery of the car is present in most of our minds. A real classic.
The car was delivered just in time for the 1993 24H of Le Mans. Larbre had just 12 days of preparation, which shows how incredible competitive the 964 RSR was coming straight from the factory.

The car finished 16th overall and 2nd in the GT class.
1 month and a few days later the car was entered in the Spa 24H race. In 1993 this race was filled with a lot of Porsche. It saw the 964 Cup, several 964 RSRs and Cup or RS cars which had been converted to RSR spec.
The car ran under the Monaco Media International banner.

In this race the colors look like if it was the chassis 6074 which competed under the banner of Monaco Media International in 1993s Le Mans 24H race. The "RSR 3.8" book (authors:Jürgen Barth and others) says that chassis 6075 was the car which competed in Paul Ricard in 1994.
The car finished the race in 3rd spot for the general classification and 1st in class. 3rd is again an incredible result, as there have been GT1 cars competing against it.
